Package: virtualbox-guest-x11
Version: 7.2.4-dfsg-1
Severity: important
Hello,
Testing the guest additions in Wayland, I've noticed that VBoxClient
isn't loaded with the desktop. In X11, VBoxClient is initialized via
the file `/etc/X11/Xsession.d/98vboxadd-xclient`, but that's a folder
only X11 uses, so Wayland doesn't initialize VBoxClient after login.
Installing the utils from the "guest utils CD", I've noticed that it
solves it by installing the autostart file from
`/src/VBox/Additions/x11/Installer/vboxclient.desktop` into
`/etc/xdg/autostart`, which runs `Exec=/usr/bin/VBoxClient-all`
(VBoxClient-all is just a link to `98vboxadd-xclient`).
With the autostart approach, the guest additions work out of the box in
both X11 and Wayland. Maybe the file `98vboxadd-xclient` should be
moved somewhere else to avoid loading it twice in X11 once the
autostart file is in place.
Best regards,
Daniel
